FOXBORO -- Bill Belichick offered no update Monday on injured left tackle Nate Solder, who left Sunday's game in the fourth quarter with what the team at the time called a head injury. Belichick even declined to say whether Solder -- who already had missed time in practice last week with a concussion -- flew home with the team Sunday night.

"I don't think I really want to make any comment about what anybody did or didn't do," he said in a conference call with reporters. "That gets into another area."

Solder suffered two concussions in 2011 and was listed as having missed practice with a concussion last Wednesday leading up to the Miami game. Because he'd played every snap against Cleveland, it was unclear when he'd suffered that concussion. If Solder indeed suffered a concussion against Miami, it would be his fourth.

The injury to Solder forced Logan Mankins to move to left tackle, something he'd practiced during the week because Solder, Marcus Cannon and reserve Will Svitek all had been limited in practice. Guard Josh Kline replaced Mankins at left guard.
